"I've had this recipe for years and it's one my family's favorites. Quick, easy but good enough for company. It is a very versitle recipe in that you can add any additional spices or seasonings to your own taste. I have tried to substitute olive oil for all of the butter, but it doesn't work for our tastes. I add a little olive oil to the butter because we do like the richness it gives yet not too overpowering. I use StoveTop stuffing mix and the parmesan cheese in the can. Also great for pork chops."

Delicious!! This yummy chicken has just become my family's favorite baked chicken recipe. It is very quick and easy to make, but has tons of flavor. The chicken stayed moist and the coating was very crunchy. I used Stove Top lower sodium Chicken flavor stuffing mix, and a 0.7 oz package of Good Seasoning Italian salad dressing mix. I baked (4) chicken breasts in a 9x13" baking dish for 30 minutes. Wow...we couldn't believe how good this was!! Thank you for sharing this fabulous recipe...it is definitely a keeper!! **Made for Spring 2013 PAC**

This is one of the best Baked chicken recipes I think I have ever made. The flavors are so well blended and it comes out so crisp and tender. I followed the recipe as written except I used 7 oz package of Good Seasonings Italian salad dressing mix and added a little more parmesan cheese (doubled it) and used chicken tenders as that is what I had. I used Stove Top Savory Herb stuffing mix which I love for recipes. Just a great baked chicken recipe and one I will use again and again. I see us using this with salads this summer with various fresh veggies. Thanks so much for sharing. Made for PAC Spring 2012

Colorado Springs, CO

Greetings from Colorado! I'm originally from Nebraska and moved to Colorado 10 years ago. I'm married to a great guy for 11 years and we have a beautiful daughter who keeps us busy and young! I work as a family law paralegal, specializing in divorces, custody, child support issues. My job can be emotionally demanding but it also helps me to remember to be so very grateful for my marriage and family. I learned to cook from my mom and grandma. I'm the youngest of five kids and my older sisters were both in college by the time I was 5 years old. So I helped Mom a lot fixing supper for my two brothers and Dad. One summer I was obsessed with angel food cake - I think I made at least one (if not 2 or 3!) a week. Angel food with fruit, angel food with frosting, angel food with powdered sugar, angel food tinted with food coloring - I wouldn't recommend this as mine came out looking more like it had been dunked in a paint bucket!! One time my mom was out of town and I made meatloaf for dinner for one brother and my dad. I got everything together and put the meatloaf on a meat rack. To my horror, the meatloaf sank and baked around the meat rake! I was all of 12, maybe 13 and I didn't know what to do. It was my first lesson in the show must go on sometimes and we ate the meatloaf from around the rack. My most notable cooking memory as an adult is when I tried to make a lemon pie - it turned out to be more like lemon soup with the pie crust floating around like crackers!! My dad grabbed a bowl and a ladle and declared it the best lemon dessert soup he'd ever had! My dad passed away in 2002 and you can imagine how much I miss him. Cooking has paid off for me though. The first meal I made for my dh when we were dating was meatloaf (without using a meat rack!) He says that he knew after tasting my meatloaf he'd better marry me quick before I got away...with the recipe!! Just to seal the deal, I also woo'd him with a crockpot pot roast. We were married 9 months later and here we are 11 YEARS later. However, one morning I was running late to work and asked him to throw the pot roast, cream of mushroom soup and onion soup mix in the crockpot. He called me at work that afternoon and asked me what else I had done to the pot roast. I told him I hadn't touched it, was something wrong? Dh told me he has tasted it and it was the most wonderful, out of this world pot roast ever! Then he paused and said, It that ALL you do - just meat, a can of soup and soup mix?!?!?!?! Even I can do that!!! Uh-oh. Our running joke now is that I better hide the meatoaf recipe since he already has the pot roast recipe and if he gets the other, he won't have a reason to stay married to me! LOL Dh also likes to remind him that I really do need him - he does the dishes!!! (Which is more true than I would like to admit!!!)
